Czachorski: Price is wrong in Marlins deal

Detroit sent a clear message Monday to its fans – namely, its recent hot streak does not mean they're content with their team.

Another message came out of the trade sending Miami's Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante to Detroit for Jacob Turner, Rob Brantly and Brian Flynn – we're trying to win now.

Detroit sent a clear message Monday to its fans – namely, its recent hot streak does not mean they're content with their team.
Another message came out of the trade sending Miami's Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante to Detroit for Jacob Turner, Rob Brantly and Brian Flynn – we're trying to win now.
I can appreciate that. The team is built for now, and they can see what their team is truly capable of after this month long hot streak.
But just because I understand it doesn't mean I agree with the move. I don't.
Prospects rarely pan out like they're supposed to, and people have been critical of Turner's chances of making it as big as the Tigers initially thought.
But trading your top prospect, a 21-year-old power arm, and a promising catcher who just came off a Futures Game appearance for a mid-rotation starter and a journeyman isn't the return you mortgage your future for.
